Surveillance
Our surveillance services provide critical evidence for cheating spouse cases, insurance investigations, and child custody disputes. Using advanced equipment and trained investigators, we document activities through visual observation and digital recording. Clients receive detailed reports with photographic/video documentation and analysis of observed behaviors.
Background Checks
We conduct comprehensive background investigations including criminal records, employment verification, and identity confirmation. Our access to nationwide databases ensures accurate results for pre-employment screening and personal matters. All checks comply with FCRA regulations and maintain strict confidentiality.
Missing Persons
Specialized locating services help find individuals for legal, familial, or business purposes. We use proprietary databases and investigative techniques to locate debtors, witnesses, or lost relatives while respecting privacy laws. Cases receive personalized attention with regular client updates.

I called and not sure who I spoke to but the man was very helpful. I had a concern about extra marital affairs my wife may have been engaged in and this guy walked me through all my concerns and the best options to resolve my concerns. I'm really glad I called.

I came here to take the Continuing Education Course to renew my Texas PI card. I was referred by a coworker. My experience was fantastic. I finished the course in the prescribed amount of time. My Cert was delivered as soon as I passed the exam. The price was very reasonable. I plan to use them again in the future for my CE, and I would definitely recommend them if you are looking for the same.

This course gives you an informative and comprehensive understanding of more than just surveillance, but also the ins and outs of being in the investigation field. Unlike other sites, here you get more for your buck. Other sites will offer 1 to 2 to 4 hours with a hefty price tag. This course offers 18 hours at a cheaper price than a 2 to 4 hour CE at other sites. Very informative and explains information thoroughly. Cuts does the BS and gives it to you straight with a bit of flair of comedy to keep it interesting and help imbed the information into your memory. I will definitely be recommending this to others as well as checking back for more classes.
